I was having a problem with my cat urinating on my couch. I tried many different things available to keep it away from the couch. But none of them worked for long periods of time. I was out of things to try. I ordered the ScatMat and have been using it for about 3 weeks. The cat has not come close to getting back on the couch. So far it has worked great. The dog also does not attempt to get on the couch anymore. I would highly recommend this for areas you do not want your pets.

We bought this mat because our very stubborn German Shepherd loves to leap on the window (and tear up our blinds) to bark at people/dogs walking by. We dont mind her being a watch dog, but the destruction of the window sill and blinds had to come to a stop.
Boy does this thing work. She stepped on it ONCE and that was it. She will not go near anymore. However, there is obviously some type of oscillator in the device because she does know when its turned off.
We have used the other one to block her entrance into the living room and that does work. But if your dog is jumper, please beware you will need a second mat so they cannot leap over them.
The pain: Anyone that says this mat is cruel has never tried it themselves. we turned it on high and both my wife and I stepped on it. It is comparable to a large static electric shock you experience during the winter time in dry climates.

I am allergic to cats so we usually have the cats outside. Unfortunately, the youngest daughter's cats seem to "disappear" all too regularly. I reluctantly agreed to have the latest one remain indoors as long as the cat stays out of my BR. Of course, our BR is the most desirable place to hang out for this cat. I got this mat hoping it would deter continued encroachment and it works very well! I tested the recommended setting and it really smarts when you touch the mat. It only took a couple attempts at sneaking in to convince the cat that my room is not a good place to go. (We're leaving the mat there as a deterrent for a few weeks to make sure she keeps out.)
Unfortunately, my oldest daughter doesn't seem to be quite as bright as the cat since she's stepped on the mat at least 3 times now with bare feet! :-)

Contech SKMC411 ScatMat Automatic Indoor Pet Training Mat, Large
My dogs have always been allowed on the furniture, but we needed to change that when we purchased a new sofa. The scatmat worked better than I had ever dreamed! It only took a few days to break the habit and now I do not even need the mat to keep them off the furniture.

ScatMat is an amazing product! It has kept my son and his wife's two cats from running out of the front door and it also keeps his dog away as well. Since they live in a heavy traffic area--they are grateful that I sent them this product. It is a little pricey but well worth the cost.
